This focuses more on the high level view of social networks and internet communities but also from a software point of view, Clay Shirky's "Here Comes Everybody", Jeff Attwood (one of the founders of this site) has blogged about him in the past.

You may start with OpenSocial to get an idea of a social network API. A general data structure for a social network is a graph, where users are nodes and relations are edges.
